Liz Claiborne Art Ortenberg Foundation

Panthera and the Liz Claiborne Art Ortenberg Foundation (LCAOF) are partners in jaguar conservation. LCAOF has been dedicated to jaguar conservation for many years and has recently partnered with Panthera on the Liz Claiborne Art Ortenberg Jaguar Small Grants and a new Jaguar Corridor project in Northern South America.

The Liz Claiborne and Art Ortenberg Foundation is a private body devoted to the conservation of nature and the amelioration of human distress. The Foundation seeks to redress the breakdown in the processes linking nature and humanity. It concerns itself particularly with matters of species extinction, habitat destruction and fragmentation, resource depletion and resource waste. It favors solutions that directly benefit local communities and serve as exemplars for saving species and wildlands. It recognizes the imperative to reconcile nature preservation with human needs and aspirations.
